Chapter 7
SEVEN
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS ASK
Nolan
No girl has ever made my heart beat this fast, and to think, Hannah isn’t even outright doing anything to me.
Or is she?
Watching her lead Saint by the hand down the hall and disappearing behind my bedroom door has me in a frenzy. I can’t decide if she did it on purpose because I was teasing her, or for some other reason.
It doesn’t take a genius to figure out what they’re doing in my room, and it doesn’t take much to pull me that direction.
The longer I sit back with a beer in my hand and some blonde by my side, the more invested in Hannah I become.
She’s hard to figure out.
The blonde beside me isn’t.
“I’ll be right back,” I say, patting the blonde’s thigh.
I haul myself up after Van turns his back away from me and walk casually down the hallway. A deep breath escapes and I turn the door knob slowly. I press on the door when it unlatches and silently enter my bedroom. Neither Hannah nor Saint are aware of my presence, and I stand back and watch as he tongue fucks her against the wall of my bedroom.
A sense of urgency rushes through me, like I want to pull him away from her.
I blame it on the fact that Hayes is my bestfriend and since he isn’t here, it’s my responsibility to protect his little sister, but my dick argues with that point.
The way Hannah kisses Saint back sends a shiver down my spine. Saint has one hand wrapped around her lower back and the other falls to her leg. He brings it up and traps it around his back, giving him all the room to dry hump Hayes’s sister against my bedroom wall.
That’s enough.
I clear my throat and Hannah breaks the kiss. Good girl.
Her flushed face tilts past Saint’s shoulder and our eyes clash. I raise an eyebrow and the relief I see is enough to throw Saint out.
“Out.”
Saint doesn’t let go of Hannah and I pretend like it doesn’t bother me.
“Bro, what?” he says over his shoulder.
I chuckle and try to play off my irritation. “This is my room. Hannah Banana here brought you here just to piss me off.”
She makes a pouty noise. “Where else am I supposed to go? It’s not like I have my own room.”
“We can go back to my place.” Saint says, turning away from me.
My stomach dips with the thought of her going with him. Do I suddenly want Hayes’s sister? Why do I care?
“Um,” Hannah’s voice is soft and hesitant.
Before she can answer, the music in the living room cuts off and her brother’s voice cuts through the air.
“Everyone out.”
Hannah’s shoulders drop with relief.
“Sorry,” she says. “Big brother is home and there’s no way he’s letting me leave with you.”
Saint growls silently but eventually lets her leg fall. He pulls out his phone and tells her to put her number in there, all while I stand back half-amused at the exchange. The other half is not so amused.
“Later.” Saint flicks his chin to me and begins to walk out of the room with Hannah following closely behind.
I wait until she thinks she’s in the clear before wrapping my hand around her delicate wrist to pull her backwards into my room.
My dick jolts with her hot gasp, but I bypass that and smirk when she glares at me.
“You’re welcome.” I say.
Her perfect bow-shaped lips part. “Excuse me?”
Oh, we’re going to play coy?
I lean down, putting my face close to hers. “I said… you’re welcome.”
Her chin tilts. “For?”
“For saving you when your plan backfired.”
Seeing the truth flash across her face makes me grin.
“Don’t act like you were bringing Saint in here just so he’d fuck you when we both know you were only doing it to make me angry.” And it sort of worked.
Hannah’s arms cross against her chest and I know she’s about to argue with me. I take her by surprise when I grip the side of her face and plunge my fingers through her hair.
“I saw the relief on your face the second I cleared my throat in the room, Hannah. If you want my help learning how to orgasm during sex, all you have to do is ask.”
I’m prepared for her to stomp on my foot, or at the very least, for her to scoff, but she surprises me when her teeth sink into her bottom lip and those pretty blue eyes soften with vulnerability.
“If I ask, are you going to say yes?”
Aw, fuck. I wasn’t expecting that. But I’m not one to back down from a challenge, so I throw her my best smirk. “I’ll help you, Hannah Banana.” This isn’t a good idea. “But we’ve gotta keep it a secret. Your brother put a no-touch rule on you, and he’s not only my teammate and roommate, but my friend too. It goes against the code.”
Heavy silence lingers between us so I try to lighten the mood. “But this means you owe me. You know that, right?”
She rolls her eyes and I slowly untangle my fingers from her hair. I open my door further and peek down the hall to make sure Hayes isn’t within sight.
“I owe you? Like a favor? What kind of favor?” Hannah is rambling, and it’s kind of cute.
I flick my chin to the hall, silently telling her it’s safe to leave my room before Hayes figures out that she was in here. When there’s a proper amount of distance between us, the threshold of my room being our only barrier, I shrug. “I’ll let you know whenever I figure it out.”
The door is almost fully closed when I hear her whisper-shout. “I won’t do your homework for you, Nolan!”
I chuckle.
As if I need her for her brains.
